Can we hide users?

[seebs]

I would like a way to hide a user (temporarily, probably). Like, have their posts not show up in threads, have them not show up in member list, etcetera. Some forums have a feature to do this that's associated with banning spammers or something, but I couldn't find anything for "show this user's posts to other people" as an option. I can create a new usergroup, or permissions, or whatever if that is the right way to do it.

I don't actually care whether or not they can still post, I just want a way to let them disappear. It would actually be sorta cool if users could set it for themselves.

There is no option for that, it would require custom development.

Have you tried Ignore? Makes someone disappear and users can set it themselves.
